-- Being the money a determining factor for access to medicines and, due to the family group makes directly the higher spending on health, we have set out as target to evaluate the spontaneous offer of 10 “plotter” drugs in private pharmaceutical establishments of drug dispensing and grass root pharmacies, from the districts of Comas, Independencia, Los Olivos and San Martin de Porres, all of them located in the North Cone of Lima, determining simultaneously whether the grass roots pharmacies are acting as a regulator factor of prices. To make the study, we evaluated the potential offer of medicines “plotters“ (Health Registry) and the real offer (price list), the establishments were stratified according to type (pharmacies, pharmaceutical chains), socioeconomic status predominant in the area of location and distance to any grass roots pharmacies; finally, through simulated purchases by health promoters previously trained, the spontaneous offer in a sample of 476 pharmaceutical establishments was evaluated. It was found 513 products with Health Registry for the 10 plotters drugs, but only 52.2% of them is commercialized in the market. The price differences of the spontaneous offer were too large, finding, ranges since 1257,14% for Sulfametoxazole + Trimetoprim 200mg/40mg/5mL x 60mL until 9300% from Sodium Naproxen 550mg tablet.
